Happy time always flies, and soon comes Monday.

Early in the morning, when the sky was still bright, Jiang Shu dragged her luggage out. She had to catch the early flight, when Ji Lianxing was still sleeping.

Today is light rain. The dense raindrops beat on the windows, turning into waterlines and accumulating in the grooves. The arrival of autumn rain indicates that autumn is on the right track.

Half an hour later, Ji Lianxing woke up in a daze, opened her eyes and looked at Jiang Shu's position. All she saw was the light gray curtains.

Ji Lianxing stood up and found a note on the bedside:

[Little Hedgehog, see you next week, if you miss me, call me anytime, and the phone will be turned on for you 24 hours a day. 】

Pen writing, handwriting is unrestrained, the strokes are strong, and the words are as real as they are.

Ji Lianxing stepped out of the bed barefoot, opened the curtains, the whole city was gray, and a layer of light mist covered the sky.

With half an hour left before going to work, Ji Lianxing changed clothes, washed, and put on shoes to go out.

It was also going to work, which seemed to be a little worse than the previous two days, especially when she saw something that belonged to her at Jiang Shu's house, her heart felt empty.

After coming out of Jiang Shu's house, Ji Lianxing held an umbrella and went to the subway station to take the subway.

The streets were in a hurry, and most of the people who got into the subway station were young people.

Ji Lianxing squeezed into the crowd to see some of them staring at their mobile phones; some with headphones; and some of them didn't know what they were thinking. This is the normal state of contemporary young people.

Two subway stations, Ji Lianxing quickly got off the subway, walked out of the station, and got into the nearest convenience store.

"A cup of American pike and a piece of toast, and the toast is heated."

After saying this, Ji Lianxing realized that this was her original life.

She is the one who drinks the eight-yuan bill, not the one who can sit leisurely with Jiang Shu and drink two thousand eighty small cans of red-labeled Geisha.

Suddenly, an indescribable feeling hit his heart, Jiang Shu's appearance appeared in Ji Lianxing's mind, and the phantom was getting farther and farther away.

Ji Lianxing was suddenly a little sad. She realized that the gap between her and Jiang Shu was too great. Whether it was economic foundation or social status, Jiang Shu was the one who could reach out and touch the clouds, but he seemed to be hiding in the clouds. The rats in the sewers are still fighting for food and clothing all day long.

How can a mouse touch the white clouds in the sky?

"Hello, coffee is ready, and your toast," the salesman repeated.

Ji Lianxing woke up, took out his mobile phone and settled the bill.

It was still raining, walking across wet zebra crossings and following the crowd into the office building.

Today is Monday, Ji Lianxing has a very important report to submit. It is about the sum of last week's data analysis. It needs to be packaged into a file and handed over to the team leader.

She has already processed these two documents, and she can basically submit them after checking them.

Arrive at the workstation on time, put the coffee aside, Ji Lianxing turned on the computer and entered the password to enter the desktop.

When she opened her document, her expression instantly became solemn.

"Did someone move my computer?" Ji Lianxing turned the chair, the loudest since she joined the job, and the direction she spoke was facing Mia.

Lu Fan was the first to turn his head.

"What do you mean? What's going on?"

Ji Lianxing pointed to the computer, "One of my analysis reports has become garbled, and the other one just disappeared."

The team leader frowned, "Are you sure? Try restarting?"

"It's been restarted." Ji Lianxing folded her hands together, her chest rose and fell rapidly, and the breath in her heart was unpleasant. The first person she suspected was Mia, but there was no evidence, it would be irrational to directly point to her .

So she walked over to Mia's table and tapped her table lightly, "Mia, please come out."

Mia glanced at her and said in a bad tone: "Why?"

"Everyone in the group is here, it's too ugly to watch, right?"

Ji Lianxing walked in front, walking in the direction of the pantry, Mia followed behind her without saying a word.

When he walked to the water dispenser and made sure there was no one around, Ji Lianxing stopped and turned to look at Mia.

"Did you touch my data?"

Mia's momentum continued, "Didn't you set a password, how can I touch your things? Don't spit out blood."

Ji Lianxing pointed to the ceiling, "The company's camera is on 24 hours a day, I don't want to make trouble until the end, so I can adjust the monitoring?"

A sentence of monitoring made Mia's expression unnatural. Ji Lianxing stared at her, and got the answer from her expression.

"Why? No injustice and no enmity always staring at me?"

Mia sneered, "It's a good one without any injustice."

"?"

"I have liked Dong Xiangyu for so many years. He has always been your licking dog during college. How are you better than me? Maybe you can pretend better than me, and men like your style, right?"

Dong Xiangyu and Ji Lianxing flipped back and forth in their heads several times before they remembered this person. They sent flowers during college, but there was basically no intersection.

Ji Lianxing has the feeling that a person is sitting at home and the pot is coming from the sky.

"How old are you? Bringing your old **** to work? Childish?"

"Oh, I'm naive, you're not naive when Jiang Shu's lover is? You're a pheasant turned into a phoenix, understand?" Mia's yin and yang anger was quite disgusting.

Hearing the word "lover", Ji Lianxing's heart beat very fast, but she must not show any flaws at this time, she said without changing her face: "I am not her lover."

Ji Lianxing was betting, betting that Mia was guessing, trying to lie to her.

"Did you think I was blind yesterday? No matter the clothes in the store are five figures, the boss bought them for you for no reason? What clothes are you wearing?"

"If there is no evidence, I advise you to be cautious in your words and deeds." Ji Lianxing's eyes were sharp, and his sharp eyes seemed to give Mia a slap in the face.

Seeing that she hadn't poked her weakness, Mia was so angry that she lost control: "white lotus, green tea, you really can hold more than a trash can."

Ji Lianxing was unmoved and looked at Mia as if she were watching a play. She didn't understand that people in their twenties would still do this kind of tricks, even if they hated it, she was true when she said such things without disguise. Have you never grown a brain?

Then Mia said a lot of unpleasant things, not a word that irritated Ji Lianxing, but she was so angry with herself.

"Mia, let me remind you, this is a workplace, not a family affair. Find a way to return my documents to me before lunch, otherwise I will definitely not be the one who will suffer in the end when the surveillance is called up."

Ji Lianxing glanced at her, his eyes were not friendly, "Also, spend more time at work, don't keep paying attention to me, don't get distracted by me if you don't have enough rank."

Mia's face was ashen with anger, she thought Ji Lianxing was a soft persimmon, but this person turned out to be an iron walnut.

Ji Lianxing's face was fine, but a layer of cold sweat was already pouring out of his back.

She understands that from today, she will definitely be targeted by Mia. If she catches a little handle, she can enlarge it infinitely, and it might affect Jiang Shu's reputation.

"Stop, it doesn't make sense." Leaving those words, Ji Lianxing turned around and walked out, instead of going to the workstation, he went to the bathroom.

In the compartment, Ji Lianxing took out his mobile phone, and the chat box stayed on Jiang Shu's interface.

After typing the content several times, the deletion and deletion were not sent out in the end.

This matter must be told to Jiang Shu, but it seems that now is not the time.

Ji Lianxing glanced at the time. At 9:30 in the morning, she should have just got off the plane. She said yesterday that she will be very busy with business this week.

In the end, Ji Lianxing still put the mobile phone in his pocket and planned to wait for Jiang Shu to come back from a business trip to talk about it.

When she went to work on Monday, she encountered such a terrible thing. Ji Lianxing's mood was as dull as the weather outside the window. The only thing she was happy about was that she was always careful in her work, and all work documents were backed up.

So it was a warning to Mia just now that it is extremely unreliable to rely on her to restore files. Of course, she must also understand that she is not easy to mess with.

After coming out of the bathroom, Ji Lianxing calmed down and returned to the station with a calm expression.

The team leader and Lu Fan both ran over to ask about the situation.

"what happened?"

"It's as you imagined." Ji Lianxing dismissed with a single sentence.

Ji Lianxing was not in the mood to chat, saying too much was meaningless. No one would do justice for her just because they knew the truth. It was cruel, but it was also a fact.

So Ji Lianxing quickly went to work.

When it was almost noon, I received a message from Mia on WeChat.

There were two lost documents, and she only sent one of them, saying that the other could not be recovered, followed by a long line of apology.

She has at least a little discernment, and understands that reporting such behavior can make her lose her job, and also said that she has recently done such a thing because she has lost her sense of love and let Ji Lianxing forgive her.

Ji Lianxing received the document and replied to her: [This is not an example. 】

Maybe everyone will learn to apologize less frequently. An apology is really too cheap. Ji Lianxing hates hearing sorry the most, as if she is talking to a giant baby. Besides, she is not interested in Mia's private life at all.

At noon, Ji Lianxing went to the cafeteria to eat alone, and came back to take a nap. Life was the same as before, but there were some differences.

After get off work in the evening, she was going to go back to the third courtyard of the Song family. Without Jiang Shu, it seemed that she was not used to going to Jiang Shu's house. Without her hug in that small room, it would actually be quite difficult.

Ji Lianxing was walking in the old alley, and the street lamp elongated the shadow and reflected it on the surface of the old earthen house.

On the narrow road, only the sound of breathing and the sound of shoes stepping on the ground, the autumn wind blew the tip of the nose red, and the coolness penetrated into the cuffs to bring a bit of icy cold.

Ji Lianxing thought of Jiang Shu again, and Jiang Shu didn't send her a message all day.

I usually don't feel it when we are together, but after leaving, I found that the sense of distance reappeared.

After thinking about it, I walked into the third courtyard of the Song family. The old guard at the door was watching TV, and there was a nighttime Peking Opera.

He usually greets him, but this time Ji Lianxing didn't bother him and went straight into the yard.

He had only lived at Jiang Shu's house for two or three weeks, but he felt as if he hadn't returned to the Song family's third courtyard for a long time.

The leaves of the oak tree in the yard have gradually withered, and it is not known whether the lights on the first and second floors have been repaired.

Just as Ji Lianxing stepped into the corridor, she saw a shadow in the dark, her heart tightened, and she took a step back subconsciously.

In the same scene as a month ago, she saw the face she didn't want to see in her life.

"What are you doing?" Ji Lianxing had panic in his eyes.

Ji Siyu came out of the darkness with a knife in his hand.

When Ji Lianxing saw the shiny thing, her pupils instantly enlarged. She didn't know what he was going to do, so she turned and ran away.

As a result, Ji Siyu seemed to be well prepared, stepped forward and grabbed Ji Lianxing's collar.

"Ah!" an exclamation.

Ji Siyu tightly covered Ji Lianxing's mouth.

"Money, take it out now."

"Mmmm-"

Ji Siyu has a knife on Ji Lianxing's neck, "If you dare to scream again, I will cut you right away."

The knife on his neck pressed down hard, as if to scare people.

He touched Ji Lianxing's pocket, took out her phone, and the hands around Ji Lianxing's neck were shaking.

"Transfer money, now transfer all your money to me!"

"Okay, I'll turn to you right away." Ji Lianxing felt that Ji Siyu's tone was different from usual, as if he was a little confused.

It's even like... knocking something.

"Let go of the knife, I'll transfer it to you, I've paid the salary, and I'll transfer it to you." Ji Lianxing kept calm, took out his mobile phone, and showed the balance to Ji Siyu, "Look, more than 10,000."

Ji Siyu let go of the knife, the tip of the knife pointed at Ji Lianxing's face, "Give it to me immediately, hurry up!"

His lips were pale, blue veins burst out on his forehead, a few strands of sweat ooze from his temples, and his eyes were frightening like a murderer.

Ji Lianxing didn't hesitate to transfer all the money to him, and she didn't dare to hesitate. At this time, she could only protect herself.

Ji Siyu received the money immediately, as if his world only had the money, he threw the knife and ran forward the moment he received the money.

"Ji Siyu!" Ji Lianxing stopped him.

The other party stopped and looked back at Ji Lianxing in a panic.

"A week ago, I called you more than a hundred times to tell you that your father is dead." Ji Lianxing closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Of course, you don't care."

"Fuck you! Crazy!" Ji Siyu growled at her.

"goodbye."

Ji Siyu turned around and ran away, clutching his mobile phone tightly. The number of transfers in it was a bargaining chip for his carnival.

Seeing his figure leaving, Ji Lianxing suddenly remembered a long, long time ago.

At that time, she and Ji Siyu were very small, they still lived in Luoer County, there was a lush gem flower in the yard, and a pot of round cactus.

At that time, Ji Siyu was only seven or eight years old, still a simple child, and he had a completely different face from now.

"Ji Lianxing, the gem flower is yours, and the cactus is mine. Let's take good care of them together."

Ji Siyu stood in front of the cactus, smiling all over his face, complacent, and accidentally sat down, stabbed with thorns all over his legs, and burst into tears.

Time flies, life trajectories are completely different, childhood faces are split into pieces, and they go their separate ways.

One became the only top student in the village, while the other spent his life on fans.

That cactus should have withered long ago.

Ji Lianxing took out his mobile phone and dialed 110 without hesitation.
